Hot on the heels of unofficial rumors that Sony is readying a PSP with 8GB of built-in memory comes official confirmation of an add-on that will give it half that. Via its official Web site, Sony announced today that it has released a 4GB Memory Stick Duo, the current storage format for its gaming and media handheld. "With our postage-stamp-sized 4GB Memory Stick PRO Duo media card, people can store all of their vacation photos and wedding videos, along with their favorite movies, music and even game scores from a PlayStation Portable device." said Mike Kahn, Sony Electronics' senior manager for Memory Stick Media. However, the increased storage capacity won't come cheap. The MSRP for the 4GB Memory Stick duo is $249--as much as a 4GB iPod Nano or the Sony PSP Value Pack itself.

So the 8 gig might be 500, but the 4 gig is still worth it.. at least I think so...
